How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 317 : Father and Daughter

"Sigh... Lila... it's not that dad has a bad heart... but the Holy Capital... it's just that kind of place."

In front of his daughter he hadn't seen for years, legendary comrcial tycoon Rock showed a helpless expression he had never displayed before.

"Bad money drives out good money, this has been a consistent rule since ancient tis..."

"You know, dad also climbed up from the poorest position in the Holy Capital."

"I understand the pain of hunger better than anyone."

"But... you must know, dad is not soone who can control the entire Holy Capital's grain prices."

"The major rchants currently holding massive amounts of grain are basically all opposing the country for their own interests, and I'm just one of them, unable to shake the entire Holy Capital."

"Although dad currently holds over ten million kilograms of grain, which could indeed have considerable impact on the situation."

"But... if I do this, it will cause great harm to our Rock family..."

"According to current suggested prices, one pound of bug rice can only sell for ten copper coins... but the real supply and demand situation is definitely more than this."

"Fighting against economic laws, no matter what organization, what existence, even gods, will not et a good end."

"Supply less than demand, prices will inevitably rise."

"Currently, most of the grain in the Holy Capital is controlled by major rchants, and after Northern Fire entered the city, they frantically purchased the grain Northern Fire threw out."

"Lila... no matter how strong Northern Fire is, how much grain can they bring from their base?"

"The Holy Kingdom is already short of grain, and with roads so severely damaged, Northern Fire faces very high costs to transport grain into the Holy Capital."

"In my view, even if Northern Fire can gain support from so major rchants in the Holy Capital, it will still be difficult to reverse the Holy Capital's grain prices."

"If we really throw out our grain according to Northern Fire's suggested prices... we'll only harm our own interests."

"Do you understand... daughter..."

However, Lila just shook her head.

"No, father."

"If all rchants in the Holy Capital only consider their own interests like us, grain prices will never co down, and everyone will forever go hungry."

"Father... I think you understand this principle too."

Lila stared intently at the man, her burning gaze making him sigh repeatedly.

"Sigh..."

Actually, at his age, that initial burning desire for wealth was no longer so intense.

What the man cared more about was actually his family and his descendants.

Actually... what would it matter if Rock Trading Company was gone?

The money he had earned was already completely sufficient for a comfortable retirent; there was no need to earn more.

The money he earned would ultimately be spent on his child and would definitely all be given to his child...

Since his daughter trusted Northern Fire so much... let her be...

If he had to lose money, he was still willing to lose money for the reason of making up for what he owed his child...

Looking at his daughter with determined expression before him, the man sighed and nodded.

"Sigh... dad has been wrong all these years."

Looking at his daughter who had grown to be capable of handling things independently, the man slowly said:

"Alright, I can agree to you."

"But..."

Hearing this word, knowing the key point was coming, Lila focused her gaze on the man's face full of fatigue.

"I have one condition."

"I require you to inherit all my property after I die, including all industries..."

"What?"

Lila stepped back several paces.

What she hated most was these comrcial calculations!

"Is this your condition..."

eting the man's gaze, Lila's eyes were full of complexity.

"Yes, this is my condition."

The man nodded.

"Perhaps because you're still too young... you don't understand how severely people in society depend on money..."

"And dad is already this age, without the strength to educate or make up for anything more..."

"Since that's the case, I hope you can take over all my property and industries after I die..."

"Perhaps you'll eventually understand ..."

Looking at the sincere man, Lila fell into silence.

Frankly speaking, she really disliked these comrcial calculations.

But father said only this way would he be willing to agree to all her requests...

Moreover, she knew father was doing this for her own good.

Thinking of the citizens still suffering from hunger in the Holy Capital, and rembering Commander Catherine who was frantically busy maintaining Holy Capital security when she took leave a week ago, Lila made up her mind.

Wasn't it just taking over things she didn't like in the future? Compared to those citizens in the Holy Capital, what did that matter?

"Fine."

Lila nodded.

"Then please don't break your promise, father."

...

"Hah! Old Rock actually turned to Northern Fire."

Sitting on a lounge chair, major rchant Louis Das, who controlled most of the Holy Capital's grain market, laughed loudly to his aide.

"Never expected... this opponent who fought several tis without losing would make such a ridiculous mistake at such an important ti."

"Don't know whether to call him stupid or naive..."

Another major rchant lying beside him let out a sowhat sharp laugh.

"Master, don't say that."

"This is an excellent opportunity for us to take over the entire Holy Capital's grain business."

"Northern Fire, considering maintaining the Holy Capital's economic order, definitely won't launch large-scale investigations and strikes against us."

"As long as we squeeze out old Rock through this grain war, afterward no one in the Holy Capital will be able to compete with us in the grain industry..."

Louis Das waved his hand.

"Alright, alright, stop flattering ."

"Have you seen our recent ga situation with Northern Fire?"

The rchant beside him smiled.

"Of course I've seen..."

"Never thought those Northern Fire guys would be so stubborn..."

"If we're not mistaken, Northern Fire has already thrown out nearly ten million pounds of grain... and all precious grains like potatoes, wheat, and sweet potatoes."

"Over ten thousand gold coins have gone out from us... Northern Fire's side can't be comfortable either."

"Mm... definitely so."

Louis Das smiled.

"Sigh... never expected... Northern Fire could actually transport in so much grain."

"Yeah, probably prepared early."

The rchant beside him laughed heartily.

"But... no matter how they think, they can't possibly guess how much money we actually have!"

"Hahaha..."

Louis Das also laughed together with the rchant beside him.

Northern Fire should surrender before long...
